|content=People die because of what Twitter, Facebook and Google do when censoring truth. So we aren’t going to stop. Even if it’s futile.
@jack is a brilliant interesting soul. One of these days he’s going to wake up like @ggreenwald, @mattyglesias and others who realized their errors.
That’s not a dig at @jack, @ggreenwald or @mattyglesias. There seems to be some dreamworld where you think ā€œAbolish the police isn’t really a thing.ā€ or ā€œThey don’t really mean no justice no peace.ā€ In the dream You think TheLancet is objective. That Peer Review is pro-science.
'''In the dreamworld you think revolutionary thinking is a pro empathy movement rather than a redistribution of empathy away from others.''' You imagine excesses are confined to college campuses and that people grow out of it when they get mortgages. That progressives want progress.
Inside the dream, anti-racism is anti racist rather than a form of racism. Antifa is simply against fascism. Black Lives Matter is about nothing more than Black Lives Mattering.
Sooner or later everyone wakes up. I don’t give up on any friends. And we need our top folks to wake.

|content=I don’t like to block people I disagree with. But here are common reasons iĀ  block:
A) Personal attacks.<br>
B) Deliberate misportrayal<br>
C) Misuse of ridicule<br>
D) Trying to get to @joerogan.<br>
E) I can’t afford to get the person therapy.<br>
F) Desire to spar from an anonymous account.<br>
G) The account is trying to drag me towards reputational quicksand.<br>
H) The account is focused on ā€œpick a sideā€ level analysis<br>
I) Repeated appeals to authorities.<br>
J) Use of invariant phrases (e.g. ā€œI’m going to invite you to sit in your own discomfortā€) associated with cults.<br>
K) '''Someone pretends to be pro empathy when they are trying to redistribute empathy away from some people in pain.'''<br>
L) I could program an Eliza program to deliver the level of challenge.<br>
M) The account makes arguments where Refutation requires divulging personal details.<br>
Etc...
The basic point is this: if you’re absolutely determined to get blocked there are many ways to do it, but It won’t happen lightly or by accident. And if that means that you have triumphed in your own mind, I feel sad for who you could have become.
But I’ll now gift you your win.
